Tips for prospective students

Know everything about the credits you need before entering into any program. Do not assume that you will have guidance and be able to speak up for yourself. If chiropractic is your passion go for it but you might want to complete your undergrad program elsewhere.

In three sentences

I have had some good experiences, some bad. The teachers are all caring and genuine people but a few, I felt, lacked knowledge of the subjects. The advising is a big area of concern. I and many of the classmates I talked to had difficulty with getting the help we needed.

Greek Life

There is a Chiropractic fraternity and possibly a sorority. There is not a big Greek Life presence on campus.

Limited space creates a waiting list for students wanting to live on campus. The housing is apartment style meaning you get your own room, but there is not a great deal of connection with other residents.

Academic Rigor

The undergraduate program is no where near as tough as other schools. I have to bring down the ranking because of that. However, the graduate and doctorate programs will stress and test your abilities to the max.
